*****The official Rangers V Motherwell thread*****

As Sakala is essentially Ittens replacement he will get his first gers goal today.
 

In all seriousness a big chance for Sakala to show us something.

Front 3 movement should cause them a lot of issues today. 

I'd have dropped Davis today as he's been playing nonstop.

Surely Hagi is out of isolation. What is holding this up?

Steve Davis must be superman,

Probably still recovering from it mate.

Just because his isolation period is up does not mean that he was not absolutely floored by the fucker.

No Patterson, is he injured.

Balogun played out his skin against the tarriers, played well thurs night, dropped for simpson, we badly need a consistent centre half pairing so they can build a coordination between each other

Agreed with davis as well, especially at home against a team that's likely going to camp in their own box, we could have gave lundstram another start to help him settle

Like the look of the front 3, loads of directness and roofe leading the line hopefully, with his intelligence should cause havoc

Seen something tht cause he tested positive in Macedonia he is stuck there for 21 days, because there isolation period if positive is 21 days?

Simpson, Sakala and Wright all have to take make the most of their opportunity today. Especially Simpson with Helander out until late December.

[sausagetrunks 6,022]

Bacuna needs some gametime today, things are getting stale for me. we need something different. 

[Jimfanciesthedude 24,540]

Hopefully as well its a 4231 and aribo is pushed right up the pitch, he is absolutely tremendous for us in the final 3rd, in and around the opponents penalty box

id say dropped because he needs a rest and could be injury prone.

He’ll start in the cup game I think

Dropped our best performer from midweek, cracking 👍

I'd have stuck with Balogun and Goldson as well, as agreed we need some consistency. 

Manager but always changes the CB pair up.

His father said he was fine. I was just wondering if it is an SG thing.

[rangersross 6,530]

Glad Wright is starting and fancy Sakala to score a couple.

I think Aribo is just fuckign fantastic to be honest.

Boy shines if he is played further up or if he sits deeper. I think he really puts a shift in and does the defensive side of things well these days.

I agree though that today we would be best having him creating things a bit further up the park.

[BlueAvenger 10,236]

We have been playing shite and with injuries I expect a tight struggle today. Anyway just fuckin win. Come on the Champions

Who cares? It’s Motherwell at home at 3pm not on tv, it should be comfortable. Also if you’re referring to Balogun who gives a fuck we still conceded 2 with him playing.

[mitre_mouldmaster 21,509]

Honestly like the Simpson starting here.

Lessens the risk of having another CB injured prior to a European game. The Helander injury has put us in a risky position.

I also think Simpson still needs more time and can still win us over.

[Valance1690 3,826]

Balogun I'm assuming just needs a break, Motherwell at home is the chance to do that so fair enough

Sakala, this is his chance, said the same with Itten last year, don't take these chances and he'll find himself on the bench for the season

Aribo has impressed me this season, defo upped his game, i have been critical of his disappearing acts in tough games in previous seasons but this season he has at least shown some fight, but imo he is wasted playing with 10 men in front of him 

When he is right up the park, gets 1v1 with a man you'd put your mortgage on him going by him, even on thursday night the one time he got the chance in their box he brought a good save from their keeper, him and roofe the now seem the only two who can make something out of nothing up front, thats why i hope they are playing close to each other up the park,

We seem to just get the business done when we’re not on TV
